About Me

"Wait for the LORD; be strong and take heart and wait for the LORD." Psalm 27:14
First of all, I love my Lord and Savior with all of my heart. He is my strength: my hope is in Him, and I never want it to be any other way.
So.....I am blessed with an amazing family, great friends, and a life full of love. So I like... ....currently going to CBU....directing a jr. high choir with an amazing group of kids....impromptu dancing with my sister...late night coffee with friends...going to the beach....screaming with Chels at D Land......singing.... sports (what? yes.).....and many, many more. :)
That's all :)

My Interests

When my heart was grieved and my spirit embittered, I was senseless and ignorant; I was a brute beast before you. Yet I am always with you; you hold me by my right hand. You guide me with your counsel, and afterward you will take me into glory. Whom have I in heaven but you? And earth has nothing I desire besides you. My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever. Those who are far from you will perish; you destroy all who are unfaithful to you. But as for me, it is good to be near God. I have made the Sovereign LORD my refuge; I will tell of all your deeds. -Psalm 73:21-28

Music:

"Music expresses that which cannot be said and on which it is impossible to be silent." Victor Hugo

Movies:

Those too. The Little Rascals is my personal fave :)

Television:

It's all about Ugly Betty, kids. Oh yeah, and Law & Order. The occasional Bravo TV, HGTV, and The Martha Stewart Show.

Books:

"Books are standing counselors and preachers, always at hand, and always disinterested; having this advantage over oral instructors, that they are ready to repeat their lesson as often as we please.” Oswald Chambers

Heroes:

My family, because they are amazing people who love the Lord and are always teaching me about myself while showering me with love. My grandpa, because he was an incredible example and an amazing man.

"When I have learnt to love God better than my earthly dearest, I shall love my earthly dearest better than I do now. In so far as I learn to love my earthly dearest at the expense of God and instead...
